I am seeing this thing from many years where more and more people even working-class stays up till late like 2 Am or even till longer before they sleep and then they are not even able to complete the desired amount of sleep and in a way its so bad for their health but I am not sure how this have started because easier everyone used to sleep around 10-11 Pm and max 12 am.


Why Many People Opt to stay Up till late at night?

Its quiet, best hour to work online and internet is faster too.

Good question, I don't know exactly, but for some strange reason I end up doing a lot more things at night and I tend to be quite entertained, especially when it comes to being on the PC on the Internet and I end up sleeping very late for that very reason.

The biggest issue for me is that I can't seem to stay asleep for much more than 4 hours at a time. I am almost living as if it was a 14 day week.

I wake without any alarm at around 6 am. Do a quick check on my internet activity and then get ready to go to work. My work is 5 or 6 days a week and sometimes the whole 7 day stretch, but rarely more than 4 or 5 hours per day to complete my assigned tasks. When I get home, I usually drop off to sleep within minutes of getting there. My offline work involves a lot of hard physical labor and I have even fallen asleep while still sitting in my car in my own driveway.

I usually wake again around 6 pm to start my “next 12 hour day”. There have been many times I feel like it is 6 am and start to get ready to go out until I notice it is getting darker instead of lighter. I get something to eat and turn on my computer. I spend the next few hours doing whatever online, including watching a few videos for entertainment and then fall asleep again around 1 or 2 am. It is again no effort to wake again around 6 am to start my next “12 hour day”

This was never an intentional schedule, it just sort of happened. I've generally had this schedule for years and am comfortable with it. That is also why I do not enjoy vacations. I feel lost half the time and fall asleep in the afternoons even if something that might be exciting is going on.

It is probably not even similar to anyone else but that is my excuse.

The majority prefer to browse the web and just kill time as they are habitual to sleep very late.

Personally, I am one who has a habit of sleeping between 12 Midnight and 1 AM.
In my Late School and College Days, I used to take a nap ranging between 1 and 2 hours in the afternoon, especially during the summer time.
I then used to wake up and study deep into the night. Sometimes till 2 AM as well!
I think while it varies from person to person, increased focus due to lesser external disturbance, noise etc is something that could be a positive for people who like to stay awake late in the night.
Then there are folks who are addicted to Streaming Shows or Movies who also sleep late in the night.

Of course, the side effect is a lack of sleep which sooner or later impacts one's health.

Yes, I have some friends who wake up till 2 or even 3 in the night just to watch Web series or Movies.
It is not good for one's health.

I prefer to stay up and go to bed late. In short, I'm a night owl. Although I usually go to bed between 1-2am, I always ensure I get 7-8 hours' sleep. I also start work at 10am and have told my students I don't do lessons before that time. I hate nothing more than having to rush off to bed and forcing myself to drop off because I have work the next day, that's why my radio job was never going to work
